A compressor station may include engines to generate power in conjunction with the other functions ofextraction, injection or transmission and may contain emergency flares. A compressor station may have auxiliary equipment which emits small quantities ofregulated air contaminants, including but not limited to, separators, de-hydration units, heaters, treaters and storage tanks, provided the equipment is located within the same property boundaries as the compressor engine. B. "Good engineering practice stack height" means HsubGEP 

### = H + 1.5L, where H equals the height ofany building or obstruction within 5L ofthe stack, and L equals the lesser ofthe height ormaximum projected width ofthe building or obstruction. C. "rmpact area" means the circular area with a radius extending from the source to the most distant point where the total potential emissions from the facility will cause a significant ambient impact (i.e., equal or exceed the applicable significant ambient impact level in 20.2.72.500 NMAC. D. "Maximum projected width" means the largest crosswind building orobstruction dimension. E. "Potential to emit" or "potential emissions" means the maximum capacity ofa stationary source to emit a regulated air contaminant under its physical and operational design. Any physical oroperational limitation
on the capacity ofthe source to emit a regulated air contaminant, including air pollution control equipment and restrictions on hours ofoperation or on the type or amount ofmaterial combusted, stored, or processed, shall be treated as part ofits design ifthe limitations orthe effect it would have on emissions is federally enforceable. Secondary emissions do not count in determining the potential to emit ofa stationary source. F. "Secondary emissions" means emissions ofan air contaminant which occur as a result ofthe construction or operation ofa stationary source or modification, but do not come from the stationary source or modification itself. Secondary emissions must be specific, well defined, quantifiable, and impact the same general
areas as the stationary source ormodification which causes the secondary emissions. Secondary emissions include emissions from any offsite support facility which would not be constructed or increase its emissions except as a result ofthe construction or operation ofthe stationary source or modification. Secondary emissions do not include any emissions which come directly from a mobile source, such as emissions from the tailpipe ofa motor vehicle, from a train. or from a vessel. G. "SUM" means the sum ofthe potential emissions for oxides ofnitrogen from all adjacent sources. 

### H. "SUM

### IS" means the sum ofthe potential emissions for oxides ofnitrogen from all adjacent
sources within 15 km ofthe N02 impact area. I. "SUM25" means the sum ofthe potential emissions for oxides ofnitrogen from all adjacent
sources within 25 km ofthe N02 impact area. J. "Sweet natural gas" means natural gas containing no more than 0.25 grains ofhydrogen sulfide per 100 standard cubic feet ofgas. [11-30-95; A, 11-14-98)

### 20.2.72.307-20.2.72.399 !RESERVED!



### 20.2.72.400 PREAMBLE: The Board is concerned about the increasingly common presence oftoxic air pollutants in the ambient air. The Board believes that the best approach to regulating sources oftoxic airpollutants
over the longterm is to set ambient standards for each pollutant ofconcern. However, because offmancial constraints, the unavailability ofsufficient information to establish such ambient standards, the time necessary to establish such standards for the contaminants identified as toxic air pollutants and because the Board wishes to implement a toxic air pollutant permitting program as soon as possible, the Board has adopted a source-by-source permit-based approach for the present. Under this permit-based approach, the Boardhas given limited authority to the Departmentto use factors ofthe OELs (occupational exposure limits) in evaluating permit applications. The Boardrecognizes that the use ofOELs, orfactors ofthem, as ambient air standards would be inappropriate; therefore, the Board has authorized their use for screening purposes only. This authorization is not intendedto represent, and should not be interpreted as, a fmding by the Board that these factors are suitable for determining safe
or unsafe ambient air concentrations. Various respected groups, such as the American Conference ofGovernmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), may develop ambient air exposure guidelines in the future. Development ofambient air guidelines by groups such as this could be the basis for developing toxic air pollutant ambient air standards. The Board also notes that the Department currently is developing an emissions inventory oftoxic airpollutants. An emissions inventory may identifY toxic air pollutants that are ofparticular concern in New Mexico. The Board believes that efforts like these may facilitate the development oftoxic air pollutant ambient air standards. Forthese reasons, the Boardrequests the Department to prepare and present a report to the Boardwithin five years ofthe effective date ofthe toxic air pollutant permittingrequirements. The report shall review and evaluate the implementation ofthe toxic airpollutant permitting program, summarize the results ofthe toxic air pollutant inventory gathered pursuant to AQCR 752, andreview scientific and technical progress made in the area oftoxic air pollutants that might facilitate the development oftoxic air pollutant ambient air standards. The Board shall schedule a discussion ofthis report at a regular monthly meeting within three months ofthe publication ofthis report. [11-30-95]

FOOTNOTES

The emissions in pounds perhour in Section 502 were derived using the formula listed below:

emission level (lbslhr) = OEL (mg/m3) + 15 Emissions in pounds perhour

0.0133 2.00xto·4 0.333 1.33 0.733 0.600 4.00

* =Compound for which an OEL is not listed by the ACGIH. Value derived by using the miminum detectable level listed in the NIOSH "Manual ofAnalytical Methods", Third Edition.

** = Compound for which an OEL is not listed by the ACGIH and for which there is no chemical specific analytical method listed in the NIOSH "Manual ofAnalytical Methods", Third Edition. A minimum dectable level (MDL) was derived by using the MDL ofa similar compound listed in the NIOSH analytical methods or by assigning the average MDL for a class ofcompounds such as "halogenated hydrocarbons". In some cases the lowest MDL ofthe whole class was used.

20.2.72 NMAC February 18, 2002 39Table C - Stack Height Release Correction Factor

Sources may choose to use a correction factor for the release height ofemissions for the purpose ofdetermining whether a permit is necessary for the emission ofatoxic air pollutant. To apply the correction go to the table below and find the minimum height ofrelease for the toxic air pollutant and selectthe correction factor (CF) which corresponds to that figure. Ifthe height ofrelease is between two values, the lowernumber shall be selected; or in the event ofmultiple releases ofthe same substance from different release heights, the source may choose to use a weighted average CF, weighted by the emission rate at each. The emissions in pounds perhour is then multipliedby the CF (see below). Ifthe emissions from your source exceed the resulting number, you must apply for a permit from the Department. Remember, this must be done for each toxic air pollutant.

CF x Emissions in Pounds perHour

where: E - emission rate (pounds perhour)

OEL

- occupational exposure limit (mg percubic meter)

CF is a correction factor, shown in the table below, which accounts for release height.
